Geico vs Geico joint liability claim

I was recently in an automobile accident where a lady failed to yeild while making a left hand turn in front of me on a 55 mph highway. I collided into the side of her car. The accident completely totaled my car and I only have liability insurance through Geico. I reported the accident to GEICO where they said that I was not at fault so I needed to contact the other persons insurance company. After receiving the police report I find that the other driver also has GEICO liability insurance and is claiming along with her insurance adjuster that I am part liable for the accident. I am currently in a rental car waiting for GEICO to complete their investigation and feel like everyone is beating around the bush. I understand the the law in Georgia is that if both parties are considered 50% at fault then no compensation is due to either party. Because of this, I feel that rather than representing me the way an auto insurance company would if it were a different insurance company claiming that I am part liable, that GEICO is looking out for it's best interest instead of mine, as a paying customer. They would rather give both of us half liability and pay no one then do what is just, which would be to protect my driving record, my standing with GIECO and my legal rights.

Can someone help me out by telling me what my rights are in this situation. A decision has still not been made by GEICO. What are my rights? What is my next move?
